Ok, so last night was my day of competing to get into the top 40 spot.  I felt that my performance was at least 90%.  So….I was very confident that I should get in.  So the game is like this.  The 100 contestants each got split up into groups of 3.  There are about 8 groups per day.  I was last night which was the 2 nd night of competition.  We each sing a song and then there are 4 judges that will give us their vote or not.  So…how we know is that on their table is a light.  If they light up then that means that they gave you their vote. I only got 2 votes last night.  The judges felt that I sang a song that nobody knew so it was to my disadvantage.  The other 2 contestants got 4 votes each and both got into the 40 cut.  At the moment that I was on stage, I wasn’t unhappy…I was still cheering on the other 2 contestants because I felt that they really deserved to get in.  The three of us wanted to be the first group to have all of us make it in the 40 cut.  Unfortunately, that didn’t really happen.  But….to me, it didn’t really matter because I know that I deserved to get in and that I sang the best that I could at that moment.  I only wished that I knew what to sing before I competed.  Anyways…a lot of people told me that this was some sort of publicity stunt because the news has been really promoting the fact that I am entered in this competition.  I guess you could say they copied “American Idol”.  Well…publicity stunt or not….after about 30min of soaking in what had happened on the stage…I started to feel that this competition was very unfair.  I don’t get it….it’s supposed to be a singing competition.  The one time I feel confident that I should get 4 votes…and the 2 lady judges don’t give me their vote!  I felt like I was tricked into entering so that they could use me and play with me.  I know that if it is a publicity stunt, no matter what I did last night would have had the same result…but….just that feeling of knowing what should have happened…makes me very upset and it has been haunting me since!  I have been feeling like, what am I doing!  I shouldn’t be in this dumb competition!  (excuse me for being so mean) What am I doing?  I want to just quit now and do something that I really want to do.  Something that will have more meaning to me. Ever since I entered I have been unhappy and unsure of what I wanted!  Then, I realize that I’m in such a terrible situation now.  If  I quit now people will probably think that I couldn’t live up to the challenge….and the worst part is that I would really let down my fans.  Yes, for some odd reason in these few days that I have been in this competition…I have a little group of fans now.  They made these huge signs for me and everything!  I was so touched to have people support me…because this is really odd for me to have something like that…it’s actually quite embarrassing…but…cool at the same time.  Anyways…my fans were more upset than I was.  And in a way, I feel like I let them down.  I know that if I do decide to continue…I’m going to do it..not only for God..but for them.  Anyways…I’m so confused with emotions right now…I’m scared that I will write something that I may regret later….繁體中文:

昨晚是我 100進 40的比賽。我覺得自己的表演至少可以打到 90分,所以…我很自信可以晉級。游戲規則是這樣的: 100個選手按每 3個人分組,每天有 8組選手比賽。昨晚是第二天的比賽,我分在裏面。每人唱一首歌,由 4個評委投票…我們知道有沒有通過是看評委有沒有亮燈。如果他們面前的燈亮了就是給你投了一票。昨晚我只得了 2盞燈,評委說我唱的歌沒人聽過,這是不利於我的部分。我這組的另外 2個選手都亮了 4盞燈,進入了 40強。當時我在舞臺上,沒有不高興…我仍然為 2名同伴開心,覺得是他們應得的。我們 3個本來想成為第一組同時進 40強的選手,不幸的是,沒有發生。但是…我覺得沒關係,因為我知道我應該晉級的,在那一刻我唱到最好了。隻希望在比賽前能知道我應該唱什麼…很多人告訴我這是有意的安排,因為媒體一直大肆宣傳我參加了這次比賽。我猜你可能要說他們抄襲了"美國偶像"…不論是有意安排或者不是…舞臺上這一切發生 30分鐘後,我清醒過來…開始意識到這個比賽非常不公平。我沒晉級…這本應該是一場歌唱比賽的。我頭一次覺得很自信能得到 4票時… 2個女評委沒有投票!我覺得他們是騙我參加比賽,然後利用我、玩弄我。我知道如果這是有意的安排,無論我昨天表現如何,也是得到同樣的結果…但是…當感覺到這一切是早已安排好時…我非常沮喪,難以釋懷!我開始懷疑,我究竟在做什麼!我不該來參加這啞巴比賽的!(原諒我這麼壞)我到底在做什麼?我現在隻想退出比賽,做我想做的事,那些對我來說更有意義的事情。從參加比賽一開始我就不快樂,不確定自己想要什麼!現在意識到自己處在這樣的糟糕境況下。如果我退出了,大家會認為是因為無法勝出…最不好的是無法對我的粉絲解釋。是的,這些天我為奇怪的理由參加這次比賽…擁有了一些粉絲。他們給我做了巨大的支持牌和很多東西!很感動有人支持我…因為對我來說這事有些奇怪…真的很為難…但是…也很酷。不管怎麼說…我的粉絲比我還要難受,是我令他們難受的。我知道,如果我決定繼續比賽…我要繼續比賽,不僅為上帝,也是為他們…我現在情緒很亂…怕再寫下去會說出令我後悔的話…

doh, it sounds like its not a very well designed competition. Don't let it get you down, if its beyond your control then there's no reason to feel like you are letting anyone down.

I've had a few friends in other competitions in China as well. And both of them said that the producers had already picked the "winner" by the time the first round of eliminations was done with. And in both cases it was more politically motivated than by who was actually the best choice. So, I think this is sort of the difference between reality competition shows in the west vs. China. In the west, people are really wary about the programs being on the up-and-up so the producers invest a lot of energy in making sure the show is "legitimate" in it's quest for the best talent. But in China, it's more about the drama and excitement of the show than being considered a true representation of talent. It's kind of sad, and I wish that it didn't work out that way, but it seems to be the case. So, please don't feel too sad or disheartened about the situation there. For all your friends and fans, we know you're doing your best and we know you've got talent oozing out of your pores left and right, so just do your best no matter what and everyone will continue to support you regardless of the results. jiayou!

i already told you how i feel about it all..i'm pissed that they're such idiots...but as long as you also know that you are a wonderful singer and this is NOT about that, obviously, then keep reminding yourself of that...i know it doesn't take away the fact that it still sucks balls, but they're just giving you more promotion by angering everyone at how lame and unfair they're being, and really they're just embarrassing themselves...we're all here supporting you no matter what...love you

You know my point of view about politics and television (just check out my new blog). They go hand and and hand. I'm one to say that honestly those comps are much like political campaigns. The voters don't make the call, the F***ing companies (judges) do. Hey the system is F***ed, what can you do but stand up for believing in doing what you feel is right. Unfortunately, winning with honor, ethics and dignity isn't respected any more. When the whole world sees you for your talent and all you are to offer, they will know that you lead by example.

Dear Marsha: These days I have been real busy, but I am thinking of you everyday... as if by doing so it will give you more strength and make you feel less lonely... but the reality is that it can't do anything to help you ... In fact, I really don't know what the heck I can do... I have read Eugenia's blog today and I think she has said it all and summed it up beautifully... Let me steal a quote from her to express what I want to say to you too, " Marsha... other than having us and all those fans out there who will always support you, YOU SHOULD BE YOUR BIGGEST FAN...BUT WHEN YOU DO NEED US, WE'RE ALL RIGHT HERE...RIGHT IN YOUR HEART..." with much love and xxxxx from Wong Wong, Gum Ying, BB, Patty, Tommy, Patty's mum and Patty's dad....................................................

Don't worry too much girl! Don't let the politics bog you down. Use the opportunity to establish who you are and build your fan-base. Regardless of how the competition turns out, make sure you take away some good promotion for yourself and do your very best. There will be those that will see you performance at face value and will admire you for that. Keep knockin' and keep movin' strong!
